<span style="font-size:13px;color:#000000;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;">CIUS interview audio.<br /><br />The student exchange program between the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Lviv University) and the University of Alberta (U of A) has completed its sixth year. In the 2011-12 academic year, two exchange students from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Lviv, Vira Holiyan and Ihor Kotsiuba, studied at the U of A.<br /><br /> Both Ukrainian students noted the importance of the well-structured curriculum at the U of A, course options, private rather than public announcement of grades, the greater openness of Canadian professors, and active student participation in class. They emphasized that courses they attended at the U of A tended to be more oriented toward practice than those in Ukraine. The Ukrainian students liked the U of A campus, where all facilities are in one place. In Lviv, by contrast, university buildings are scattered across the city. U of A libraries were also convenient to use and usually had the required books available. <br /><br />Both students stressed that they had little difficulty in working in English upon embarking on their studies here, partly because much of their language use centred on mathematical terminology, which is universal. In some cases exchange students from Ukraine had to devote several weeks to adjusting to the daily use of English upon their arrival in Canada. In everyday life, Ihor and Vira noted the comfort and convenience of Edmonton. They were impressed by Canadian hospitality and attracted by informal student culture, as manifested in casual clothing and eating habits. <br /><br />U of A students Stephan Pacholok (Faculty of Science) and Dominika Lirette (Faculty of Arts) were recipients of the Ivan Franko School of Ukrainian Studies Ukraine Travel Award at CIUS. The two attended the summer course “Ukrainian through Its Living Culture” offered annually in Lviv for the past eleven years by the Ukrainian Culture, Language and Literature Program in the Department of Modern Languages and Cultural Studies at the U of A. They found studying in Lviv an unforgettable experience that allowed them to improve their ancestral language through immersion in an authentic Ukrainian-speaking environment and everyday experience. They attended regular classes taught by Dr. Alla Nedashkivska, walked around the city, attended plays and concerts, and went to cafes and restaurants. The students were charmed by the rich cultural life of Lviv and its historical sites. There were also very emotional moments when participants met their families, and Lviv was an excellent base from which to travel the country.<br /><br /> On 30 November 2011, all four students participated in the third seminar in the series “Ukraine and Canada as Witnessed by Students,” which is organized to bring attention to the student exchange program between the U of A and Lviv University and other opportunities to study in Ukraine. The event was co-organized with the Alberta Society for the Advancement of Ukrainian Studies and the Ukrainian Students’ Society. The establishment of the new University of Alberta Ukraine Student Exchange Endowment Fund was announced at the seminar. CIUS regards the growth of the new fund as one of its priorities and encourages the community to expand the fund. The short-term goal is to increase its capital to $30,000 to fund one annual scholarship of $1,000. The long-term goal is to reach $100,000, which could provide two annual scholarships of about $1,800 each. Currently, this amount would suffice to cover the cost of travel between Ukraine and Edmonton.<br /><br />Found in <a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1619%20">CIUS Newsletter 2012</a><br /></span>

CIUS interview audio. <br /><br />Bohdan Klid interviews exchange students Yuriy Kyrylych and Dmytro Hural. The student exchange program between the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Lviv University) and the University of Alberta (U of A) entered its fourth year in the fall of 2009. In the 2009-10 academic year, two exchange students from Lviv University, Yuriy Kyrylych and Dmytro Hural, studied at the U of A. No exchange students from the U of A studied at Lviv University this academic year.<br /><br /> Yuriy Kyrylych is a fifth-year student at Lviv University’s Faculty of International Relations, where he is completing a master’s degree in international finance. Yuriy attended the U of A in the fall 2009 semester, taking three courses in the Faculty of Business: Decision Analysis, Advanced Corporate Finance, and Investments. <br /><br /> The second student, Dmytro Hural, completed his master’s degree in commercial law at the Lviv University Law Faculty in 2009, after which he began working in a Lviv law firm. In the fall 2009 semester Dmytro took courses in International Business Transactions, Public International Law, and Contracts. In the winter 2010 semester he took courses in International Criminal Law, Intellectual Property, and Corporate Securities. <br /><br />Dmytro and Yuriy explained that the comparative experience of taking courses at the U ofA gave them special insights, and that other exchange students from Ukraine could expect similar benefits. The two students agreed that the major prerequisites for students from Lviv University to succeed at the U ofA are good study habits, a sound knowledge of English, and the ability to master specific course terminology in a very short period of time.<br /><br /> On 29 November 2009 they gave a joint presentation at the Plast building on “The Legal and Economic Situation in Ukraine: Challenges and Perspectives,” sponsored by the Alberta Society for the Advancement of Ukrainian Studies. Yuriy Kyrylych focused on impediments to economic growth in Ukraine, while Dmytro Hural spoke largely about reforms needed to transform the legal system into one that is more predictable and equitable. <br /><br /> After four years of the exchange program’s existence, seven students from Lviv and four from Edmonton have studied at the partner institutions. Students from Ukraine have generally commented positively on the professor-student relationship at the U of A and on the opportunity to take courses not available at home or featuring somewhat different content from those offered at Lviv University. U of A students have stressed Lviv’s rich cultural life, the city’s architectural gems, and the improvement in Ukrainian that their stays brought. <br /><br /> Challenges to the long-term viability of the exchange are the higher costs and the relatively large amount of time needed to study abroad—at least one semester. Higher costs include air fare and room and board, which are particularly onerous for Ukrainian students. <br /><br />Found in <a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1617">CIUS Newsletter 2010</a>

The student exchange program between the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Lviv University) and the University of Alberta (U of A) completed its third year in the spring of 2009. During the 2008-9 academic year, one student from the U of A, Jordan Vincent, went to Lviv in the fall semester. Mr. Vincent is majoring in history and entered his fourth year of study in 2009-10. This was Jordan’s first visit to Ukraine. Overall, he was very satisfied with his stay and the improvement in his Ukrainian, especially with regard to comprehension. Using Ukrainian daily also made him more confident of his speaking ability. In Lviv he took courses in the Ukrainian language; musical folklore and folk singing; French; and cultural studies. Mr. Vincent was impressed by Lviv’s rich cultural life, its remarkable architecture, and the layout of the city Jordan Vincent centre. He was very pleased by the generally friendly and helpful attitude of Lviv University students toward him.<br /><br />Found in <a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1616">CIUS <span style="font-size:13px;color:#000000;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;">Newsletter 2009</span></a>
